"Concluding that a body structure is poorly designed,
as Oxford University Ph.D. Professor Hafer claims,
Hafer explained that when she was looking for new approaches to refute Intelligent Design,
she knew she “had a winner when … in the middle of an Anatomy and Physiology lecture.”
she concluded that the male reproduction system “is a great first argument against ID”. 3
She believed that she also had a good “political-style argument” against ID."
This is the type of article which causes men to take photos of their...… well you know and send it...….. you know.
My dog makes his own vitamin C, but I can’t make mine.
The Creator is an underachiever.
And global climate was done incorrectly too, right Heather?
Yet another retarded academic.
given the identity and nature of the goal and purpose of the reproductive system, if one wanted it to work properly, one would have designed it the way it was designed.
It works, just not nearly often enough.

If it ain’t broke...
She’s nuts.
Sperm has to be kept cool and many, if not most mammalian testes are exposed. Can’t be tucked up inside, can’t be placed in bone: would defeat the purpose.
Having the branch and berries exposed is as good an advert as flashy feathers and having them in front for easy access is always handy.
I’d say thats a nudge and a wink to the Big Guy....
But, looking at that photo, I think I see the problem.
Delta T, babe.
And yet another bubble head with nothing better to do in life than ........ pick life apart.
Ok. Bad design. How you gonna fix it lady?
What a waste of oxygen.
Plenty of girlfriends while a teen and early twenties. 2 grown kids, yep works perfectly:-)
Read the article.
I’m in Florida and it is warm outside so mine are hanging low. I bet the folks up north theirs are high and tight.
I read somewhere a long time ago it was all about temperature regulation.
In order to claim that something is poorly designed, there is an assumption that we know exactly why something was designed as it was. Given that science is learning new things about human physiology daily, mankind is a long ways from understanding all the factors that would go into creating a perfect design. Mankind and scientists in particular need to recognize that we’re not nearly as knowledgeable as we think we are. There is more we don’t know than we do.
“...poor design claim focuses on the view that “if testicles were designed”, then why didn’t God “protect them better.”
Intelligent design made men intelligent enough to protect his testicles. DUH!
I always laugh when these woman empowering self defense trainers show women how to knee a male attacker in the groin and thumb his eyeballs, as if a man would allow such a counter attack.
It’s worked pretty well for the last dozen millennia or so ...
And while we’re at it, tbe other half’s layout isn’t great from the design standpoint. But esthetically, it has a certain appeal.
They’re outside so they’re easier to scratch. If they were inside you wouldn’t be able to scratch them and therefore one of life’s great pleasures would be denied to men. God was looking out for us.
In addition to the many rebuttals to her argument, I add:
The male reproductive system has been so spectacularly successful that people of her ilk campaign for sterilizatjon, abortion and euthanasia to curb the human population.
Her kind believe that species reproduction and dominance is an evolutionary imperative, not the individual’s personal satisfaction with how it is achieved.
I have found evolutionists hypocritical ever since my undergraduate Biology days.
Does it mention that uranus is not designed as a sex organ?
